Actor/Actress with the Most Impeccable "Nerd" Credentials (2 Viewers)

[Scorpius the Allfather]

I know we’ve mentioned Zoe Saldana in here, but I’m watching Adam Project and I’m really thinking bout her impressive resume. Major roles in Star Trek and MCU, plus a Star Wars role. That’s the holy trifecta. Then add Avatar and the random other roles like Adam project and she has to be the geekiest actress, right?

Star Wars?

 

[GrandAdmiral]

Star Wars?

I'm assuming animated.

Star Wars?

Okay, I could have sworn she did a voice somewhere, like a droid or something. But I don’t see it. Never mind. Her credentials suck.

So we're going to have to add DC to Rosario Dawson's resume as she's doing the new DC show DMZ.

I love me some Rosario.

This dude with an absolute beastly recent push.

This popped up on my Facebook. I never really connected this guy to all those roles, but he's got a share of the title for sure.

Died last week. RIP.

I have no idea. I scanned his IMDB (it's very long) and nothing popped out at me.

Lois and Clark, he's Jor-El.

He’s Marlon Brando?!?

Pretty big shoes to fill, for sure.

Also, Henry Cavil likely doesn't have the filmography to win (superman in the DCU, the Witcher, Immortals... if that counts). But, be is a bonafied gamer and sci fi guy.

To me, Nerd Cred isn’t if you’re in a nerd favorite movie. It’s if you’re a nerd.

Henry Cavil isn’t just a gamer and sci fi guy. He builds his own PC rigs. He’s huge into Warhammer and plays with just about anyone. When it comes to the Nerdom, Henry Cavil is one of us and we are sooooo happy to have him.

Was scrolling through to see if Payton Oswalt has been mentioned bc if Cavill gets cred for being a gamer Patton should get it for being an ubernerd

Robin Williams was also a big Warhammer fan and was known to show up at game shops around L.A. and play against regulars or even just watch other people's games. He was also big into anime and figure collecting. Even snuck in a Neon Genesis Evangelion figure cameo in "One Hour Photo."

Cavil also apparently plays Adeptus Custodes which is literally the only Warhammer army that would be acceptable for Henry Cavil to play.
